The Bloom Files | The X-Files Season 4 Episodes 21 & 23: “Zero Sum” & “Demons”

The truth is out there. In here? Who knows. But we’re opening up “The Bloom Files” to find out.

This week, Mike (@AMikeBloomType) and Angela Bloom (@angpalaggi) get into two separate, yet eerily similar episodes of The X-Files season 4. In “Zero Sum,” Skinner finds himself in too deep on the deal he made with the Cigarette Smoking Man. And in “Demons,” Mulder wakes up with a grainy memory, somebody’s blood on his shirt, and a lot of questions.

Next week “The Bloom Files” will be covering Season 4, Episode 24 and Season 5, Episodes 1 & 2, “Gethesmane,” “Redux,” & “Redux II.”  Write in your feedback for those episodes to [email protected] or [email protected].

Married couple Mike and Angela Bloom travel to the FBI basement to crack open The X-Files. Every week, the two cover a single or group of episodes of the influential sci-fi series starring David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson, which Angela has seen many times, but Mike has never. They’ll bring their different perspectives to this first watch/rewatch of Mulder and Scully’s adventures as the podcast goes hopping through the show’s first nine seasons.
